From 490957908b07b49c122f442fd73caf8a997d2eea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Garrett Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2007 04:37:52 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] * Assign rollback permission to ALL logged-in users by default. This seems to be sensible, given that "undo" can already be done almost as quickly, and that rollback can now be rate-limited. * This change has been discussed with Brion Vibber and Tim Starling, and I have received no substantive objections from the users on the English Wikipedia. --- RELEASE-NOTES | 2 ++ includes/DefaultSettings.php | 2 +- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/RELEASE-NOTES b/RELEASE-NOTES index 3bb9cd78e9..14a66cb4b3 100644 --- a/RELEASE-NOTES +++ b/RELEASE-NOTES @@ -25,6 +25,8 @@ it from source control: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN * MediaWiki now checks if serialized files are out of date.
